About

Hello!

I am David Westerlund and I delight in listening to the aspirations of leaders and helping them unlock hidden resources by facilitating meaningful engagement. This unleashes innovation, and leads to resilient, supportive, joyful, and agile workplace cultures that allow organizations to have greater momentum and impact towards their mission.

My work as a consultant, designer/facilitator, and executive coach is informed by Conscious Leadership, Immunity to Change, Liberating Structures and Applied Improvisation, that all remind us that we have a wealth of wisdom within us – individually and collectively. The key is creating conditions for this wisdom to emerge and become generative. Let’s unlock your potential!
